Jesus was a commie!

I know...ironic, isn't it? The world's first hippie.

If Jesus came back today the moral majority would skin him alive.

Speaking of American commie heros, Tom Joad anyone?

So we now know the religious demographics of the people who visit Larry King's website, so what?:neutral:

piercehawkeye45 08-22-2007 06:26 PM

He was pointing out the strong majority of atheists.

rkzenrage 08-22-2007 06:30 PM

I was?

piercehawkeye45 08-22-2007 06:32 PM

Yes, you were.

Or that is at least what everyone took it as unless something really big flew over my head.

rkzenrage 08-22-2007 06:33 PM

That's some talent you have there.

piercehawkeye45 08-22-2007 06:35 PM

Thanks, I get that a lot.

There was nothing else remarkable about it, and you remarked. QED.

As I have stated a thread, once posted, is not about the poster, it is the Celler's, for all and is a thing of it's own.
I do find that aspect interesting, as I do other aspects of it.
I was very surprised by the small percentage of the spiritual but not religious number as well as christian percentage.
I very rarely post a thread hoping just to garner a one-sided discussion... there is no point in that.

The others are only small because the atheist is so big, which was the result of a bunch of atheist-friendly (including Pharyngula, where I saw it) websites passing the link around for fun. You can (and I did) even vote multiple times without even clearing your cookies. It's sorta funny, especially if Larry mentioned it on his show, but it's not indicative of anything much.
